Zipcar gets sued for “unfairly charging customers”. When complaining about the high cost of everything in the USA, do not forget about the expenses that go into defending companies from such lawsuits… they add up.

For the record - if they fail to disclose the fees, they should be sued - but my understanding is that the customer in question is suing them because they feel that the fee structure is not fair.
Last time I checked, you can choose whether to do business with Zipcar or not - how is society served by having a judge decide what a company can charge a customer for a discretionary purchase?
"allegedly charging customers excessive or hidden fees".
Read your own submission FTW?
If you'd actually comprehend my original comment, you would also notice that I have read my own submission, but that you for the general advice.
As mentioned above, I can see a lawsuit for hidden fees, but my question is...
So, why should "excessive" fees for a discretionary purchase be regulated or decided in a court of law as long as they are clearly disclosed?
